Rechargeable vacuum cleaners support cyclic charging and discharging, but whether they can continue to cycle depends on usage habits and technical protection mechanisms. Here are the key points:
1. The essence of charge discharge cycles
Lithium batteries themselves can be charged and discharged in cycles, but the number of cycles is limited (usually several hundred to thousands of times). Each complete discharge to full charge (100%) counts as one cycle, but daily use is mostly partial charging and discharging (such as charging after 30%), which does not significantly consume the cycle life.
️2. Avoid extreme use that may affect lifespan
The following operations will accelerate battery aging:
Thoroughly draining the battery: Long term discharge of the battery (such as using automatic shutdown) can damage the battery's chemical structure and lead to a decrease in storage capacity.
Long term idle without charging: The battery will self discharge when idle, and if it remains in a low battery state for a long time, it may permanently fail.
Continuous high-power operation: High current discharge in strong gear will exacerbate battery loss. It is recommended to prioritize using low-power gear for daily cleaning.
3. Optimization of charging strategy
Charge as needed to avoid overcharging: Charge immediately after use without waiting for the battery to run out. Modern vacuum cleaners have built-in chips (BMS) that automatically power off when fully charged, but long-term power on may still affect battery health due to high temperature and high pressure conditions.
Dual battery rotation: If the device supports dual batteries, alternating use can reduce the cycling pressure of a single battery and extend its overall lifespan.
4. Technical protection mechanism
The battery management system (BMS) of the vacuum cleaner provides basic protection, including:
Overcharge/overdischarge protection: prevents the battery voltage from being too high or too low.
Temperature monitoring: Pause charging or operation at high temperatures to avoid overheating and damage. However, technological protection cannot completely offset the impact of long-term misuse.
